EHR Update: February 23, 2017 Release Notes

Practice Fusion’s EHR updates are released over a two week period — see what’s coming next for your practice.

NEW FEATURES

Identify patients with potential headache disorders at the point of care
Headache disorders are common with inherent challenges in diagnosing
more debilitating conditions, including migraines and chronic migraines.
To help you provide your patients with the best care, Practice Fusion
now includes clinical decision support (CDS) notifications for headache
disorders.

Determine the level of pain and disability caused by your patient’s
headaches to help better identify a treatment plan for your patient by
completing the Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS) test, linked directly from the CDS notification. Click here to learn more about CDS alerts»

UPDATED FEATURES

2016 Meaningful Use attestation deadline extension
As of February 2017, CMS has extended the attestation deadline for

(EPs) now have until March 13, 2017 to submit their 2016 Meaningful Use
data to CMS. Your Meaningful Use Dashboard has been updated to reflect
